Guwahati, May 31: Assam’s wicket-keeper batter Uma Chetry has been named in the Indian senior women’s team for all formats (Tests, ODIs, and T20Is) for the upcoming series against South Africa.

The Women’s Selection Committee announced India’s squad for the upcoming multi-format IDFC First Bank series against South Africa on Thursday.

The series will feature one Test, three ODIs, and three T20Is. South Africa will start the tour with a warm-up match against BP XI on June 13 in Bengaluru.
